Thus, the "relation" in "relational database" refers to the various tables in the database; a relation is a set of tuples. The columns enumerate the various ...

7. Tuple relational calculus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuple_relational_calculus

   A relational database schema is defined as a tuple S = (D, R, h) where D is the domain of atomic values (see relational model for more on the notions of domain and atomic value), R is a finite set of relation names, and h : R → 2 C. a function that associates a header with each relation name in R. (Note that this is a simplification from the ...
